The Fantastic Four: First Steps Trailer Finally Brings Marvel's First Family Into the MCU, Teases Galactus' Arrival

by Henry Feb 23,2025

Marvel Studios unveils the first trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, offering a captivating glimpse into one of 2025's most anticipated superhero films. The trailer showcases Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and The Thing, alongside the formidable villain, Galactus.

The film's 1960s retro-futuristic aesthetic is prominently displayed, beginning with a dinner scene at the Baxter Building. A thrilling preview of a New York City battle is also teased. We witness Ben Grimm's transformation into The Thing, and both he and H.E.R.B.I.E. (the Humanoid Experimental Robot B-Type Integrated Electronics) are shown engaged in culinary activities.

The trailer features Sue Storm utilizing her Invisible Woman powers and Johnny Storm showcasing his Human Torch abilities. While Reed Richards' elastic Mr. Fantastic powers aren't explicitly shown, a brief appearance by John Malkovich, rumored to be portraying Ivan Kragoff (the Red Ghost), adds intrigue.

The trailer's launch event took place at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, where stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach interacted with enthusiastic fans.

Scheduled for release on July 25, 2025, the film stars Ralph Ineson as Galactus and Julia Garner as Silver Surfer, alongside Paul Walter Hauser, Natasha Lyonne, and Sarah Niles. Matt Shakman directs, and Kevin Feige produces under Marvel Studios.

Here's the official synopsis:

Set in a vibrant 1960s retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces Marvel's First Family – Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn), and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) – as they confront their most formidable challenge yet. Balancing their heroic duties with their family bonds, they must defend Earth from the voracious space god, Galactus (Ralph Ineson), and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). And if Galactus's plan to consume the planet wasn't enough, it takes a deeply personal turn.

Speculation swirls around Robert Downey Jr.'s potential return as Doctor Doom, either in a supporting role or a post-credits cameo. Feige has confirmed the Fantastic Four's appearances in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
